These are must have items if working with gold. I keep these in stock. The quality is awesome. They look like real gold and help make my pieces look like "finished" projects. I just wish they came in a 4mm size. They just aren't big enough to cover the 2mm or larger crimp tubes.

I always us crimp beads because they give a very finished look to the jewerly. I have compared the prices and yours are the very best. I can always count on a speedy delivery. Thanks for your good service.

I wasn't aware that crimp covers existed until after I had completed my first necklace. Looking at the completed necklace, I felt that the exposed crimps gave it a sort of unfinished look, not that anyone would say that to me. Anyway, I soon thereafter came across these crimp covers and decided to give them a try. I found them difficult to get over the crimp, but this may have been because I am new with all this and had not crimped properly. The first crimp cover I tried bent crooked instead of closing nicely over the crimp. I subsequently, removed that cover and both of the crimps on my necklace, then used the instructions on the artbeads.com site for proper crimping. After that I applied the crimp covers -- found them still a little difficult to work with, but this time they closed beaufifully over the crimp and added the look of two nice round beads to my necklace in lieu of those two ugly crimps. I will definitely buy and use these again.

I was asked to make a Fuchsia bracelet and earring set for a lady at work. I had never worked with gold before and the end product was beautiful but the finishing touch was the 3mm gold-filled crimp covers. Perfect!
